From Faak to Sturgis
16/07/2008 by info.
CUSTOM Chrome Europe’s Ride-In Bike Show at Lake Faak, Austria, is the latest European event to join the Official World Championship of Custom Bike Building Affiliate program.
Now in its 6th year, the one-day event on September 6th, during European Bike Week, will see one lucky builder win 5,000 Euro towards travel expenses to compete in the Official World Championship in Sturgis in 2009.
Faak joins a line-up of events around the world that includes Australia, Canada, Japan, Hungary, Portugal, the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Russia, Spain, Italy and Sweden, all of which offer travel expense prizes for their “Best in Show” winning builders to compete at the Official World Championship of Custom Bike Building (OWC).
Staged from August 30th to September 7th, European Bike Week features a continuous program of events, rides and entertainment – with the Custom Chrome Europe Ride-In Bike Show as the highlight.
The bikes will be judged by a jury, selected from members of the custom press, builders and V.I.P. vendors.
Last year saw the introduction of a specialty Sportster-engined bike sub-class (which includes Buells), which is open to factory and Harley and aftermarket Sportster-style engined bikes. Other classes returning for 2008 include Radical, Old School, Chopper, Modified Harley (factory frame and/or engine) with the Best of Show scooping the OWC Affiliate prize.
As is the case with most custom bike events outside the United States, ‘Faak’ is a ride-in show and participation will be international, so the sub-class and the Best of Show winner could be selected from any country. The 5,000 Euro DHL voucher for the winner’s bike freight to the 2009 OWC at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is sponsored by Custom Chrome Europe and Arneitz Custom Show/ European Bike Week.
